Using technology to snub freedom of speech

We see lot of telugu forums used for mud slinging, filthy bashing, and pushing agenda. This sick culture is not limited to print and visual media in our state, it has creeped into electronic media. Most of the websites that have a reasonable user base that participate in discussions (50-100 active users) tend to push an agenda as a group and do not tolerate any post opposing their party's policies or procedures.
It started with telugucinema.com that used to have a devoted group of N hero fans that used to delete threads started against NBK. All Chiranjeevi fans ran to idlebrain.com for shelter and ibdb ran the forums reasonably well until they started having server issues and people stopped posting there cos all the previous posts keep getting deleted.
Now the forums moved to tollywoodinfo.com, apparently a Chiranjeevi fan site. They do everything that telugucinema.com used to do them and do not tolerate
anybody posting anything analyzing PRP policies or agenda. They deleted a post by me asking PRP to not use the term "Samajika Telangana" instead of "Pratyeka Telangana". Most of the members there are reasonable enough to have a civil discourse but some sensitive fans create drama and try to discourage
anybody from talking anything that is not praising PRP and Chiranjeevi.
As a fan of both Pawan Kalyan and Loksatta, I find it utterly ridiculous and decided that instead of trying to talk to them, i would be spending my time
better if I post my thoughts on a broader platform that understands freedom of speech and google bomb the crap out of it so any search results on PRP or Chiranjeevi will end up on this site.
